FLAG TORN DOWN Jap Climbs Flag-Pole in Com- pound of Embassey and Severs the Rope Tokio, July 1. (By the A. P.)— Both houses of the Japanese Diet at their first sitting of the current session today and almost as their first business, passed resolutions strongly opposing action 9f the Un- ited States in engeting, as part of its new immigration law, a clause prohibiting the entry of Japanese. The passage of the resolutions which in each instance followed the pfe- sentation of addresses by the Pre- mier, Viscounte Taka, Akira, Kato and the foreign minister. The House of Peers, in ifs resol- ution, expressed approval. of the ac- tion already taken by the Japanese government with regard to the American enactment, that passed by the lower house asked by the govern- rent to take all proper teaaures demanded by the situation. lbotn drafts assert the enactmgnt is dis- criminatory. The lower house's leclaration de- clares the exclusion clause violates the principle of justice and fair play and stands in the way of the seventy-year old friendship of Japan and America. It adds: “Resolved that the Houge of Re- presentatives express profound scn- timent opposed to this discrimina- tory enactment, and be it further, “Resolved that the House reques, the Imperial Govérnment promptly to take all proper measures the situation requires.” > + MAN NOT IDENTIFIED Tokio, July 1. (By the A. P.)—Nu merous details of the cutting down of the American flag.in the United States embassy compound today have - been brought to light by police in- quiry, although the identity of the Japanese who slashed the halfyards and thus unceremoniously removed the ensigne that had not been un- covered, several hours after the af- fair. The officers inquiry disclosed that about 12:45 p. m. a Japanese stole to the compound, climbed the flag- pole and cut the flag from the ropes with which it is hoisted, escaping before the policé arrived. The cut- ter seized ati opportunity to enter the compound when there were ne “Americans in that part™of “tie en- closure, which formerly’ surrounded thé embassy building destroyed by the earthquake and fire of last Sep- tember.

COOLIDGE ASKS EXPENSE CUT IN NEXT YEAR (Continued from page one.) finally balanced. The surplas ac- cumulated at the, eud of each of the last three fiscal years has been ao- plied. to the reduction of public dbt in addition to the reductions re- quired by law under the sinking fund and other acts. Without the aid of this recurring surplus the public debt would be $1,100,000,009 more thar it now stands; and the interest charges would be some $45,- 000,000 greater next year than we shall now have to pay. e"Along with this, reduction in ex- penditures has gone a progressive reduction of the public debt with its attendant relief from the burden of intergst. On June 30, 1921, the public debt was $23,976,000,000. In 1922 it had been reduced more than $1,000,000,000 ‘to - $22,964,000,000. In 1923 it had been reduced more than $60,000,000 to . $22,349,000,000. In 1924 it has been veduced again by more than $1,000,000,000 and stands at an estimated amount of $21,254, 000,000, which is a reduction in thre years of $2,722,000,000 and means saving of’ interest of more than $120,000,000 each year. “This shows that the campaign which was | commenced three years ago has been waged unrelentingly. In this campaign we have had the active co-operation and, support of the congress. The three budgets presented by the chief evec- utive to the congress have carried drastic, progressive reductions in their estimates-for funds. Congress has adhered to budget procedure in passing upon these estimates. The appropriations granted have been in harmony with the financial program of the chief executive.” His Estimates The president announced that he would submit estimates of not more than $3,000,000,000 for expenditures in the. fiscal year beginning July, 1925. He fixed that figure as the maximum and instructed the offi- cers under him to find a way to cut $83,000,000 from the present esti- mates which, “are of a preliminary |character and call for appropria- tions or $3,083,000,000. “If this cut is made, Mr. Coolidge ‘intensive said the surplus for the year covered by those estimates would approxi- mate $108,000,000. He added that he had faith in the ability of the administrative heads to accomplish the purpose. “We are setting the example for reduction in the cost of government and for a return to ordinary peace time conditions,” he continued, with emphasis. “There can be no faltering. Our duty is plain. As we have progress- ed in the last three years, sq we must ‘confinue.” “When we met six months ago,” Mr. Coolidge said, “I stated to you that this fight for economy had but one purpose—that the benefits would accrue to the whole people threugh reduction in taxes.
